    I dont know if it's any use but nothing ventured????


  2. They had a child Sarah Powell that married a Joseph Dixon,who's child was William Dixon who married a  Rebecca Woodward  their daughter Susanna Dixon married Abel Campbell ...etc.  Try Gencircles.com-you have to search through all the 'smart match' names,and there's no guarantee that all the info is correct,but it's a lead anyway.

  3. Checking in my Powell book, I find many men named Evan.Will do some more checking.  Book is "The Powell Families of Virginia and the South", Wr. by The Rev. Silas Emmette Lucas, Jr., of Easley, SC,  Reprinted in March 1977 with some additions and Second Reprinting 1982.  Since the name is not (per my thinking) a usual one, will see how it might travel down through the lines...and, of course, back up. I'll let you know by Email...which I see is not available on your side.

  4. II. JAMES ap MORGAN Sr. was born ca 1645 in Wales, came to America from Wales aboard the ship "The Morning Star". He died 14 Nov 1691 and is buried at Bay of Bohemia, western shore of Maryland. He married JANE. She died 1691. Will is registered in Philadelphia

    Children of JAMES MORGAN and JANE in red as proven by passenger list- births from Bible page copy at Library of Congress. a partial transcription of an old Bible of 4 children and their exact birth dates. But further research indicates 2 more children lewis and Cadwallader are possible. It looks like the "ap" was left out (a mistake because it would make it more believeable). Records in the Library of Congress indicate there was a Morgan Bible, owned by a descendent in Maryland in 1897. However, the where abouts of that Bible are unknown at this time.There could have been older children on another page not offered for proof:
